----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]----I'm having a scale model built (by my Son-in-law) of the 415-C Ercoupe, and want to bring the finished model to the National Ercoupe Convention in Knoxville, Iowa in a few weeks.
My problem is that I have been unable to find information on the exact paint scheme for the plane.
I want to finish it exactly like the PQ13 Manned Target Drone as built for the military in W.W.II.
I tried the Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio, but they will not give out information like this to anyone, as they don't have the time, according to them. (Even though I'm a member of the "Friends of the Air Force Museum" group.)
I also tried contacting Mark Hardin, who I understand is the owner of the only original Ercoupe that actually was a PQ13, but he is pretty busy too, and was unable to help at this time.
Does anyone here have the color and insignia info that they would be willing to share?
My ultimate goal is to eventually buy a full size "coupe" and finish it similar to this, but that is off in the future. This is just for the 1:48 scale plastic model at this time.
Thanks for any help you can give me...
